The Fateful Bargain

When English nurse Emily Grenfell struck a bargain with surgeon Sebastian van Tecqx, she never dreamed of what lay ahead. Sebastian promised to operate on her ailing father--if Emily traveled to Holland to care for his invalid sister, Lucillia.

Emily, however, hadn't counted on her patient's exasperatingly frequent tantrums. Nor had she considered the disquieting effect handsome Sebastian would have on her.

Emily wanted the austere doctor to see her as more than just a nurse. And the frequent visits of a certain Dutch beauty did nothing to help her cause.
